Not true, and you ought to know it. Clearly you don't bother reading the things I have told you on this issue. I even sent you a link on this point.

The issue came up with the Presidential election of Woodrow Wilson. Charles Evans Hughes, the Republican candidate, was alleged to be an illegitimate candidate precisely because of this issue.

Tell me about the time Charles Evans Hughes, or anyone else, was struck from the ticket or denied the Presidency or Vice-Presidency on this issue. The only purposes served by this trash is to make conservatives look like idiots.

Barry Goldwater and George Romney were also challenged as to their citizenship status. Here, i'll save myself some time by linking you to another article.

To the best of my recollection AuH2O was the Republican nominee in 1964. Neither Goldwater nor Romney was born in one of the United States. Different issue but equally irrelevant.

For something real to consider regarding Ramaswamy, consider this.

Vivek Ramaswamy copies Barack Obama's lines

0:00 [Host] they're saying that you're the
0:01 Republican Obama
0:01 [Ramaswamy] you know what I, I
0:03 actually
0:04 there are elements of that yeah that I'm
0:07 actually leaning into
0:07 [Obama] this has never
0:09 been a Democratic or Republican idea
0:11 [Ramaswamy] these are not Democrat ideas or
0:13 Republican ideas
0:13 [Obama] this is an American
0:15 idea
0:15 [Ramaswamy] these are fundamentally American
0:18 ideals
0:18 [Obama] imagine they were driving a car
0:21 and they they drove it into the ditch
0:21 [Ramaswamy] if
0:25 somebody has repeatedly crashed your car
0:27 [Obama] you can't have the keys back
0:29 [Ramaswamy] do you want to turn over the keys to the
0:31 same people who crashed it
0:31 [Obama] he said
0:32 Russia in the 1980s are now calling to
0:35 ask for their foreign policy back
0:35 [Ramaswamy] I have
0:37 a news flash the USSR does not exist
0:39 anymore
0:39 [Obama] you know the Cold War has been
0:40 over for 20 years
0:40 [Ramaswamy] it fell back in 1990.
0:43 [Obama] a skinny guy with a funny name 0:43 [Ramaswamy] who the
0:46 heck is this skinny guy with a funny
0:47 last name
0:47 [Obama] but they sense deep in their
0:50 bones
0:50 [Ramaswamy] I believe deep in my bones
0:53 [Music]
0:53 [Obama and Ramaswamy] E Pluribus Unum, out of many, one.
0:56 [Obama] We Are One people.
0:56 [Ramaswamy] I have a dream that we
0:59 can be one people again. I'm not going to
1:01 read speeches written by others. What
1:03 you're going to get from me is what's
1:04 coming from the heart my own deep
1:06 convictions
1:07 [Music]

Straight from the heart with deep convictions.

Sure. Right after you tell me about Barack Obama being struck from the ticket over this.

You are attempting to change the nature of the point in question. The point was not whether or not someone was struck from the ticket, the point was whether people raised objections to Presidential candidate's natural born citizen status in the past. You implied that this only happened with Obama, and I have once again shown you that no, it didn't. It's happened several times in our nation's history.

The only purposes served by this trash is to make conservatives look like idiots.

Yes, they should just go along with whatever their betters tell them. Thinking for yourself and doing your own research is stuff that only crackpots do.

The *MEDIA* liars make people look like idiots because they work for the corruption system running DC. They mocked Mitt Romney for putting his dog on the roof and for cutting off a piece of a boy's hair some 50 years ago or so.

Reagan was senile according to them, and George W Bush had the intelligence of a monkey and cheated his way out of the Vietnam war.

If you have a multi billion dollar propaganda machine at your disposal, you can make people look like idiots just because you want to. Imagine if this same lie machine was directed at Joe Biden.

To the best of my recollection AuH2O was the Republican nominee in 1964.

You are an old fellow to remember that! I only know about it because I've studied a lot of history of politics. Yes, that slogan didn't catch on. Too esoteric.

I will say Barry Goldwater was a lot more sane back then, but he sure lost his mind latter in life.

Seems like it happened with a lot of people from the 1960s to the present.
